It's true there are some squabbles from time to time as well as numerous toys being flung from prams, not to mention the flouncing, BUT let's remember that a lot of the threads are actually very helpful to people, some threads have really interesting discussions and other threads are just hilarious. Canon vs Badger, Derek Pye, etc. Have to agree with Conrad - there's some really funny stuff on here!

I don't really think if it's anything to do with being power crazed.
